The Giants continued to work through their list of potential candidates for a new coach Thursday when they interviewed Steve Spagnuolo, their defensive coordinator last season, and Teryl Austin, the defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions the past two seasons.
On Friday, the Giants are expected to meet with Adam Gase, the Chicago Bears’ offensive coordinator. The Giants have already interviewed Ben McAdoo, their offensive coordinator the last two years. McAdoo and Gase, a former offensive coordinator for the Denver Broncos, are also candidates for the Philadelphia Eagles’ head-coaching position.
Under Austin, the Lions’ defense ranked 18th last season, although it was second in 2014 when defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was on the team.
